I love PSU, don't get me wrong (I know some people would flip out if I called their favorite game boring) - but I'm level 102 and I'm kind of bored with just leveling. I'm not really capable of soloing a lot of runs, mainly those with bosses.. but I'm willing to try, too. xD

Aaanyway, what do you do when you're bored of your routine? >_> I've been hunting Shatos and considering going after Black Hearts to level some PAs in the process... I dunno. Tell me what you do. :3

Switch missions don't run the same mission 100 times in a row do what I do I jump from Neudaiz to maotoob, to Parum, to GC. and then mix that order. That just a suggestion

There's always something to hunt, or im grinding PA frags, or im levelling a different class, or im grinding money so I can buy something new.

Just switching your class can give you a whole new scope of things to do.

I don't have much else to do. >: Today's the last day of the semester and I have an entire month off.. XD

Very true, though I don't have the cash to change my pallet up. XD

Perhaps I could just save up for that, then. o.o

Yeah, alts are a good way to play the game differently. Just don't be like me and have four characters around lvl50 being useless.

Go to other players' team and play with them whatever you know them or not. You may talk with them about everything then find out something interesting. Besides playing the missions, you may also design your room or go to the other's room. There are many funny things to do with it.

I also play with different characters(jobs).

Go to someone's room and leave a cardboard box with the message "Hello [person's name]!" and put another cardboard box inside it.

I play maybe twice a week for a few hours. Keeps things very fresh. Now that schools nearly done with for the semester, I'm ready to get back in there and get tired of PSU all over again. Woohoo!

Try giving yourself multiple small objectives/goals whether it be hunting a certain rare weapon or B, farming profitable synth mats, lvling specific tech/bullet/PA, synth certain items, grinding spares, etc. Sometimes it seems like there's too much to do, and I end up doing none of them, but I can usually combine objectives (ie hunting Psycho Wand/farming catilium/lvling barta or megid/hunt HPC/get PA frags all on doing 1 sleeping warriors run). It can make the grind a little more managable and rewarding and less tedious. At the end of the day's runs, hopefully you've gained some spending money or found some items worth selling. Just don't convince yourself that there's only one way to play this game (speed runs only) - play how you want.

Quit the game. The game dosnt really have much to offer.

Go play in the casino.

Try to dress up your character for specific theme.

Make your room pretty and invite everyone for a tea party.

Leveling without a goal is always boring.

No point being rich if you can't spend your money, right?

Hey Addark, it's me Josh from the Zaku Site.

I'm taking a bit of a break too, I need it. If it helps what I do, try just playing it very casually if you do, or log off for a few days and rejoin when the updates come out. Try making alts as well(I'm running around atm as a new level 1).

Hope that helps. n_n

(...) and I'm kind of bored with just leveling. (...)

*wide-eyes* You can... level... in PSU? Wow, live and learn. @.@

Anyhow, you could just relax and talk to your friends and hang out in lobbies for awhile, until you feel more like playing. Personally though, I suggest maybe writing a background story for your character or drawing them. It gives you a whole different perspective when you worry less about the gameplay and pay more attention to the atmosphere and detail of the game. Or start a screenshot comic thread like a lot of people seem to have done. xD Or maybe write a guide or something. And while you do it, spend your time synthing some things and selling others, so when you feel like playing again, you'll have a bunch of new stuff and meseta to play with when you go back. :3

OH SNAP YOU STALKER.

I SHOULD take a break but I really don't want to. ): Especially now that I have all the time in the world to play.
Maybe, though. I could beat the offline story mode then everything online will be fun again. xD

before my xbox broke i found myself kind of mindlessly running all the missions i always ran. Getting bored i decided to do what everyone else said
a.) picked a random skill or tech and a min lvl i wanted to get it too...and got it there....using pretty much nothing else (unless i REALLY needed too)

b.) found a group of people that were willing to run through all the missions on one of the lines with me so that i had the lobbies open. this one was a fun one because i played a lot of runs i never had. I didnt finish though because i lagged out and it was late...so i just went to bed

c.) lvl your PM if its not lvled all the way yet...so that you can...

d.) hunt for the weapon/board/item of your dreams and if need be synth it

and

e.)make an alt and lvl its PM all the way too!

...i miss my box and my psu-ing

Sometimes it good to sit back and hang with people you like.

*Do runs and uses drops to lv up PM.
*Help people you exchanged partner cards with in unlocking all lobbies so they can warp.
*Sit down in a lobby where their are a lot of people and listen to the funny conversations
even if someone is cybering. XD
*Do Execavation runs.

go to the item database look for items u don't have/ need, and get a team together to find said items.

keep in mind the new missions drop more stuff than the old ones, and...

there is the update tomorrow and the whole 1 more week of three star luck thing.

i soldier through it cuz i know i have to suck it up and get stuff/ materials now cuz when it is over, it's over...well till maximum attack g anyway.

there is a whole new mission out tomorrow, if u are bored....seriously dedicate a couple hrs to another game.....and be prepared to buy that item u been looking for from me.

Can I stalk you tooo? Although I seldom go to the Zaku site. xD

WTC, why is your holiday so long? Mine is only 2 weeks, and doesnt start till the 21st. T__T
I wish I could play PSU more, but I have only logged on to get my coin all week. I have too many school assignments piled up that I need to finish before winter break. >__>

Buuut, level 1 characters with a job and weapons you've never tried before are a lot of fun. I started a new one semi recently. 1hko's <3
Grinding the same missions over and over again gets boring fast too. World tours are nice for a change of pace, and stoof.

Start a new character, twink it out, try a new type class. This is always fun because it gives you freedom, depending on your money pool.

Nooo; the fun thing about alts is that they have TOTALLY GIMPED WEAPONS. And then you raise money on the alts themselves to buy new ones. 8D

Dec 13, 2007, 03:31 PM
Or do what I'm doing, and use an alt to hunt for something that's relatively useful on Adryk. I'm doing that right now, and I've leveled up a fairly large amount, along with leveling up tons of PAs. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

I sure do get bored of it sometimes too.
Suggestions is too do something else or simply try a other kind of game.

Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion is a very good game, easily worth a try.
Itīs a large world to explore and many many quest to do. =)

Whenever I was maxed out with nothing to hunt, I usually like joining random rooms to meet new and unusual players in hot spots. Then go on world tours and play unpopular missions straight through to the end of the road. It's not about hunting stuff, but to play unpopular and different missions.
And don't forget Bruce runs. That mission hasn't been touched in ages. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

That, or play story mode online.

I'm not bored, and I've rarely been bored before because I change things up. I try new classes, new skills, I do missions all over, etc. I also have to thank my friends for keeping me interested. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif
